FWD downgrade options (<100K)

paintrain · April 20, 2011, 07:16:25 PM

Hi Guys - I'm looking at doing a downgrade in my forward line probably next week (Krak, Petrie or maybe Yarran) to free up some cash. What are your thoughts on the following options?

- Alex Johnson (Swans): Played 2x games, 37 avg... selected 2x games in a row, should get a 3rd and was named on ground last week. Pretty crappy scores though?

- Byron Sumner (Swans): 1x game, 43 points... more "exciting"/upside than Johnson, light-frame (injury concerns?)... not name since round 1.

- Viv Michie (Dockers): Scored an 84 in pre-season... I think he's been named as an emergency? when will he get a game?

- Zephaniah Skinner (Bulldogs): Scored an 80 in pre-season... Will he get a game?

- Isaac Smith, Talia also options? or do I just get Mzungu now?

Cheers for advice ;D

maybe Jed Lamb from sydney, no idea on his price but is a first year rookie.

Don't know who you should go but in answer to your question when will Zeph Skinner get a game. Eade said probably not till after mid year.

l think the lack of realistic options answers your question

same...

none of the fwd choices are great (or even good) at the moment...

sure you can't play with mids / defenders if you really want to downgrade to make some cash??

Thanks for your opinions guys...

To answer bundyboy's question my defs & mids are very set so I don't want to mess with them.

I really wanted to bring in a premium FWD by the return of league games... I guess I might just sit tight until a desirable downgrade target become available.
